Laboratory Applications
Snap caps seal 16mm tubes used in clinical, research, and diagnostic settings. Phlebotomy stations, sample-prep benches, and storage rooms rely on quick-closing tops to limit evaporation and contamination. Technicians cap and uncap rapidly during high-volume processing, which suits batch sample handling.
Color-coded closures help teams group samples by patient, assay, or workflow stage. Blue caps can mark a specific protocol so staff identify tubes without reading labels. Storage and transport benefit from a secure press-fit that keeps contents contained between steps.
